CONCORD, New Hampshire -- Sen. Ted Cruz has raised $4 million in the eight days since officially launching his White House bid, his campaign confirmed Wednesday night.
And in a sign of his appeal to grassroots conservatives, his campaign said that 95 percent of the contributions came in amounts of $100 or less.
Cruz, who formally announced his presidential campaign on March 23, remains the only major candidate in either party to officially launch a White House bid. He raised $1 million within a day of his formal announcement, and $2 million within the first three days, according to his campaign. Cruz's campaign said bundlers accounted for one-third of the money raised and that 300 donors maxed out on their contributions to Cruz.

“Ted Cruz has ways to go.”
Yeah, but just imagine if he’d open a pizza shop.
He said it in passing this morning on FoxNews, but Ed Rollins said Cruz raised $8 million during his first week following his announcement to run for the presidency.
He is going to need over 2 billion for the primary alone.
The establishment Bush will use the other candidates running to drain his campaign dry.
He has to get on the airwaves, and that means ALL the airwaves. He has to get to every state and push...HARD.
My hope is that he vetts all his campaign workers well, because the Krooked Karls of the world will send in moles to undermine his campaign.
We ABSOLUTELY need this guy.
But as usual the media is trying to pick the candidate. They desperately want Jeb because they know he will lose.

If Ted Cruz were president and he started a war in the same way he’s started his campaign, the U.S. would have been well on the way to winning the war by now.
He planned his first week as a presidential candidate as thoroughly as the Allies planned the Normandy invasion. His first objective was winning support from the two major pillars of the Republican base — Evangelicals and Tea-Partiers — and he’s been extremely successful in his efforts.
Now it’s on to Berlin, with virtually no one in his path prepared to stop him, all the while adding more troops and contributions by the day.
Jeb Bush hasn’t even gotten out of bed yet, presidential-campaignwise, compared to Ted Cruz. And once Hillary announces her candidacy in a week or so, the media will be All-Hillary-All-the-Time, and Republicans will be focused on defeating her, with Ted Cruz leading the effort since he’ll already be the Republicans’ lone well-established candidate.
Alright!!!
I’m hoping Walker can knock the Jebster out.
CRUZ CHRISTIAN PIZZA
CRUZ TIDE !
Roll’n Roll’n Roll’n
Roll’n Roll’n Roll’n
Roll’n Roll’n Roll’n
CRUZ TIDE !
YEAH !
YEAH !
Keep roll’n roll’n roll’n,
Though the main streams ( media ) a lie’n,
Keep those Indies coming, Cruz tide.
Through the left’s extreme, shrill, hate for Teddy,
Hell’s gate a rising,
Wishing the others ( GOPe ) would fall by the wayside.
All the things we are missing,
Executive orders need repealing,
Are waiting at the end of my ride.
Move’n up, move’n out, move’n out, move’n up
CRUZ TIDE !
“I’m hoping Walker can knock the Jebster out.”
Still a Cruz fan here, but Walker can hang too. The MOST IMPORTANT thing, of course, is to TAKE JEB OUT.
